While handling him today, I noticed an occasional clicking noise coming from his mouth/nostrils. Like that bubbly sort of clicking noise. It almost sounded weezy at a couple of points, but it's hard to tell. It's very quiet, and he's not showing any other symptoms. No gaping, no elevating his head, nothing. He's behaving normally. But I say "probable", because I know that there's really nothing else that sort of breathing could indicate. So, I'm assuming it's the beginnings of an RI. I'd love to check for bubbles inside his mouth, but he absolutely will not hold still for me, so that's out.

So, I dunno. What do you think? Is it something I should schedule a vet appointment for? Or am I paranoid and there's a chance that it isn't even an infection? I'm thinking I might want to try the home remedy explained in this thread: http://ball-pythons.net/forums/showt...-from-Home-DIY, considering I have a Repti-Fogger. Only problem is that I'd need to get the veterinary disinfectant, and it looks like I might only be able to get that online. Depending on how quickly it ships, I dunno. Could it wait a few days?

Also, what should I do about husbandry to prevent this from happening again? Keeping constant temperature and humidity in this house is... near impossible. So, I'd understand if it's just entirely my fault. But I'm trying my best. The hot side of the terrarium is most often at a constant 87 F, but I've caught it as low as 83 and as high as 91. The cool side tends to stay at around 77 or 78. Without the Repti-Fogger, humidity would just be at a constant 20 or 30%, but with the fogger on a timer, it fluctuates between 40 and 60%. I'm eventually just gonna get a new terrarium, because this screen-top is a nightmare to work with, but I just don't have that money right now. So, I'm trying to make this work.

Any advice, tips, opinions, etc. are greatly appreciated.
